I gave up (sold) my 85 1.4 to help finance my purchase of the first 3 Limiteds. Also let go my K 85 1.8. I've been tempted to try and reacquire a 1.8 when one was FS here on the list, but couldn't really justify it. If an 85 1.4 were available, I would be far more tempted. I miss that lens. But I wouldn't trade the 77 for it.
